6. Do I need a helium fill hose?
YES! A fitting on the helium hose screws into the helium tank then you put the other end of the hose into the balloon you are filling. It is possible to fill your inflatable without the hose (ask me how I know) but it is much, much easier with a hose.

9. What are my color choices and what if I want a balloon a special color?
Our material color choices are:

10. What material do you use to make your balloons, blimps, hot-air balloon shapes and custom shapes and how durable is it?
We use a special blend of polyurethane. Polyurethane is a very light, yet durable material that holds helium much better than pvc or other balloon materials. If we gave you a piece you could not pull it apart but if it hits something sharp it will pierce it. Tie your inflatable away from sharp objects!
